Quota value

Quota value

Quota value is a limited company's share capital divided by the number of shares.

What is quota value?

Quota value is the figure you get when a limited company's share capital is divided by the total number of shares. If the share capital is SEK 50,000 and there are 500 shares, the quota value is SEK 100 per share.

 

Quota value instead of nominal value

Since the 2005 Companies Act, quota value is used instead of the earlier concept of nominal value. It is affected by events such as a new share issue, a bonus issue and a split, and matters, among other things, in a reduction of share capital.
